He's right in the middle of some big dudes! Glad all of them are on our side. :)
Good to know their all ok, now lets get them home !!!
I'm glad to know he's OK. I know Chrystall and you are even happier to know he's OK.
Great to see our heroes in good spirits for a picture. We will pray for their safe return Rick.

If I give em sumthin', it'll be a mountain PORK CHOPS.
And taters.
And gravy.
Awrighten.

Hal, you and I are definitely on the same page with that! ;D I'm WAY too old to fight and too slow to run.
I would give him the gears till he got me in a headlock. Then I would buy him beer the rest of the night.
As far as i know right now he is close to the Pakistan border.
Here the unit is getting ready for some night ops.

ONE RINGY DINGY... ;D
Love it...
How far can that little beauty ring bells? Look, they even have to counter weight the barrel so it doesn't lift too much when they fire it.
Boom!! Boom!! Out go the lights!!!!

Depending on the projectile. You can be off by a house or two and it really doesn't matter.
